The most risky and decisive in the vertiginous history of the rocket

by

All ready for the ninth Starship test flight, the most important mission so far after the final explosives of the previous releases. With Elon Musk back in Starbase, Spacex seeks to complete pending objectives and, as if that were not enough, try for the first time the reuse of one of the rocket stages, the super heavy propeller. Date and time of launch. Following the pattern of the previous flights, the ninth launch of Starship is scheduled to take off in the afternoon, so that the reentry of the ship on the Indian ocean occurs in the sunlight. The launch window opens on Tuesday, May 27 at 6:30 p.m., local time of the newly incorporated city of Starbase, Texas. In other cities: Madrid, Spain (CEST, UTC+2): Wednesday, May 28 at 01:30 Mexico City, Mexico (CST, UTC-5): Tuesday, May 27 at 6:30 p.m. Buenos Aires, Argentina (Art, UTC-3): Tuesday, May 27 at 8:30 p.m. Bogotá, Colombia (COT, UTC-5): Tuesday, May 27 at 6:30 p.m. Lima, Peru (Pet, UTC-5): Tuesday, May 27 at 6:30 p.m. Santiago, Chile (CLT, UTC-4): Tuesday, May 27 at 7:30 p.m. Caracas, Venezuela (Vet, UTC-4): Tuesday, May 27 at 7:30 p.m. How to see it live. Spacex will broadcast the flight Through its website and His official X profile. The retransmission will begin 30 minutes before takeoff. On this occasion, too They will broadcast live A talk by Elon Musk about the future of the company and its path to the conquest of Mars, which will take place about six and a half hours before the launch. For the most enthusiastic, YouTube channels like Nasaspaceflight, Lab Padre and Everyday Astronaut They usually offer retransmissions with their own cameras from the immediate vicinity of the launch platform. In Spanish, the coverage of Space border, Mission control, Manuel Mazzanti either Spacexstormamong others. All eyes put on the ship. This ninth attempt comes after the investigations of flights 7 and 8, which ended in the loss of the upper stage of the rocket. Spacex has clarified that the causes were different. The seventh flight succumbed to unexpected vibrations that caused a liquid oxygen leak. The eighth, with the vibrations already mitigated, failed for a hardware problem in one of the central raptor engines of the ship, which caused a mixture of propellents and a violent explosion. With the lessons learned, all looks are put on this ninth flight. Double Tirabuzón of the Super Heavy. One of the great milestones of this mission is that the propeller, whose serial number is Booster 14, will be the first to be reused after a successful take -off and landing in the seventh mission. Although 29 of its 33 Raptor engines have already flown, Spacex has carried out exhaustive inspections and replaced single -use components. This time, Booster 14 will not try to be caught by the tower. Instead, he will perform a series of risky experiments during his descent on the Gulf of Mexico: Post-separation controlled turn: several hot separation adapter vents will be blocked so that the thrust of Starship engines make it spin in a known direction, saving propellant. Greater angle of attack: it will try to fly with a more aggressive angle during the descent to increase atmospheric resistance and reduce speed, needing less propenting for landing. Motor tests in spareness: one of the three central engines will be deactivated intentionally during the final phase of the landing ignition to test the capacity of a backup engine. Then, it will go to only two central engines before hard ametering in the Gulf. Many experiments to do. The Starship ship (the number S35) also has a full agenda because it must complete the objectives that Spacex could not demonstrate in the two previous flights: First load deployment: It will display in its suborbital trajectory eight Starlink satellite simulators, similar in size to the next generation of the Spacex constellation. Motor reached in space: he will try again to reade of a Raptor engine in a vacuum to get out of his trajectory. Recentrada experiments: Spacex has eliminated a significant number of thermal tiles of the ship’s shield to test vulnerable areas. It will also test new metal tiles (one with active cooling) and functional capture accessories for future landings in the second tower. In addition, the borders of the tiles have softened to avoid hot points. To top it off, the reentry profile will be more aggressive to deliberately stressed the rear ailerons. The objective is a controlled ameter in the Indian Ocean, where there will already be dawn. Why this flight is so crucial. Starship’s ninth flight is not just one more test. It is an attempt of Spacex to demonstrate the rapid reuse of the super heavy, validate solutions to previous failures in the Starship and, above all, to collect critical data in extreme conditions to approach the objective of a totally reusable launch system. The success in these experiments could accelerate the program, which already has permission to make 25 annual flights. For now, this is the third flight of 2025. Whatever happens, the emotion is guaranteed. Image | Spacex In Xataka | Spacex has been scratching his head for 11 weeks to relaunch Starship. Now he finally has green light to fly again

With ‘The family of TV’, TVE wants to look more than ever to Telecinco. It is a risky movement

by

The program with which La1 wants to compete from you to you with Tele5 and Antena 3, ‘TV family‘, He has reached the chain’s grill. Does it after two weeks late (first by the Death of the Popethen for the Blackout that left Spain without electricity), and has been presented in society with a colorful ride that has guaranteed it A few criticisms. But after its premiere there is something else: TVE’s intention to compete for a younger audience What was the ride? The ride consisted of the arrival, one by one, of those who will be the great stars of the program. That is, Aitor Albizua and Inés Hernand, veterans of RTVE, along with María Patiño and Belén Esteban. The latter, together with collaborators such as Víctor Sandoval or Carlota Corredera, During yesterday afternoon there was time for everything, from detailed presentations of multiple collaborators to winks to the past. For example, in tribute to sadism with which ‘Save Me’ treated its collaborators, the program forced the collaborators to move by their own means from Torrespaña to Prado del Rey. Throughout the afternoon there were times for viral moments, such as the inevitable Chuminero dance from Lydia Lozano. And the ride surprised with the signing of two very young from the heart of the heart: Isa Pantoja and Rocío Carrasco. They are not light decisions: the bridge to the total connection with Telecinco is lying. The program was divided, as usual in the future, in two blocks: one that will go, approximately four to five in the afternoon, and after the series ‘Wild Valley’ and ‘The Promise’, another block between seven less fourth and eight and a half. The audience, with doubts. It is complicated to determine the exact audience of the program by its dual nature: two differentiated blocks, separated by which it seems that the stars in the afternoons of the1 will continue: the ‘Wild Valley’ and ‘The Promise’ series, which made a phenomenal 14.5% of Share. The first block of ‘The Family of TV’ only 8.7%, being below both ‘afternoon’ and ‘dreams of freedom’, and very close to ‘everything is a lie’ of Telecinco. In the second block, it made 9.1%, also third option behind Telecinco and Antena 3, and being very close to Lasxta. ‘The family of TV’, with its arrival, eliminates from the grill to the series ‘La Moderna’, for both budget and audience reasons, as The director of RTVE explainedSergio Calderón. RTVE also definitely eliminates the ‘El Hunter’ contest, which was also having very low figures and had canceled on the paper since summer of 2024. From that point of view, ‘The family of TV’ is a safe bet: it serves as opening and exit parenthesis for two traditional series that still give up, and there is space to play with the blocks and make changes if the audiences do not improve. Battlefield: The afternoons. Interestingly, the afternoons of all channels have remained as a bliburrillo where all channels have distinctive offers, but with common points: Talk Shows and varieties (‘The family of TV’, ‘Late‘,’ The Jorge Jorge ‘), Series (‘ The Promise ‘,’ Dreams of Freedom ‘), Contests (‘ Pasapalabra ‘,’ Chain reaction ‘…). Until now, TVE remained on the sidelines with a block of cultural tone competitions and absolutely distinctive series of the public chain. Now, with ‘The family of TV’, go down to the mud of direct competition imitating the style of its rivals. TVE telecinquification. Regardless of whether ‘the TV family’ is paid with a success or with a failure, what we surely have here is another sample of the public channel approach to codes most typical of private chains. Embraceing the jester and acidic humor of ‘Save The Broncano program. RTVE wants to rejuvenate his audience and that Playz’s experiments are not in something isolated, and that is why Inés Hernand and Samantha Hudson are brought from there, and has the potential of ‘Save me’ as an ironic artifact for young people. ‘Save me’ in TVE? After a stage-person on the Internet and then a landing in Ten, the informal heir of ‘Save Me’ was ‘or that we were Shhh’, with a greater impact of the expected and audiences of more than 4% of Share. Before all this, he had a brief life as Netflix experiment in the form of reality that did not curdle. All this helped the program to become an ironic artifact for the youngest, alive especially in social networks and with a fauna with their own dynamics that do not need explanations and that will inherit ‘the family of TV’. It is undoubtedly a risky leap: does it make sense that on the set of ‘The Family of TV’ the fights, hysteria attacks or insults of collaborators as extremes as Kiko Matamoros are replicated? LA1 is risking, but deep down not much more than has risked all the eSCUDERÍA DE COMESO THAT IS AT THE PUBLIC CHAIN: First Broncano and Marc turned, shortly Buenafuente. It is a general RTVE plan that goes through a different audience from those traditional series and cultural competitions that had before, and in that sense, ‘The family of TV’ is a comprehensive bet for the afternoons. OBJECTIVE: Rejuvenate the audiences and give a washing face to the TVE grill. Header | RTVE In Xataka | 739 million euros: an audit of the Treasury points to a possible budget hole in RTVE

Starship flight 9 includes such a risky maneuver that will be tested at sea, not to destroy the tower

by

After Two consecutive flights in which the Starship ship exploded shortly from separating from the propeller, a conservative approach could be expected by Spacex for the ninth launch. Nothing is further from reality. Double Tirabuzón without a network for the Super Heavy. Elon Musk’s company knows how to maintain emotion for flight 9, and the riskiest plans focus on The largest part of the rocket: The Super Heavy propeller. Spacex will not only reuse for the first time one of the three super heavy who have successfully landed in the arms of the launch tower. At the same time, plan to test With only two available engines For braking and landing maneuver. It is a deliberate resistance test to verify what would happen if a propellant engine fails during the reentry. Straight to the Gulf of Mexico. In this case, Spacex will not try to catch the propeller for the second time. The landing maneuver is so extreme (first super heavy used, with only two lit engines and without failure tolerance) that the rocket will discard. Instead of returning to the tower, he will make an essay of the maneuver in the Atlantic Ocean, finishing his mission with a shocking. Spacex already has a second Mechazilla tower in Starbase Able to catch rockets with his robotic armsbut he needs both for when, in addition to the 70 -meter Super Heavy propeller, the 50 -meter Starship ship begins to land in the other tower. Something that Spacex would have tried for the first time on this flight 9 if it had not been for the catastrophic failures of flights 7 and 8, which have delayed those plans. Even so, we are going to have fun. 29 used engines. Spacex has already done a proof of the propeller which will launch the Starship in this ninth launch: the Booster 14. He took off for the first time on January 16 and was successfully captured by the tower a few minutes later, while the starship lost control. The first time Spacex reused a falcon 9 propeller A year had passed Since its launch. With the Super Heavy just three months have passed. In addition, there is no trap or cardboard: 29 of the 33 engines that wears the booster 14 are used. Of course, Spacex is still far from rapid reuse type “Zero-Touch reflight“(land, load propellants and take off again) to which he aspires. Especially with the ship and its thermal shield. All eyes put on the ship. To land a used rocket of 70 meters high with a less engine is impressive, but the super heavy will not be the protagonist of this flight. It must necessarily be the Starship 35 because it is the third ship of version 2 that will launch Spacex. His two predecessors had an abrupt ending for excessive vibrations near the engineswhich led to leaks, fires and explosions. The S35 ship completed its cryogenic tests in mid -March, but has not made a long ignition like the S34, and there are doubts about how Spacex will face its launch, because the flight profile has not yet been published. Nor the results of the investigation on flight 8, nor the flight license of the Federal Aviation Administration, so it seems unlikely that Spacex takes off at the date initially scheduled (April 18). Mars does not expect. Yes, on the other hand, the investigation of flight 7 is closed, whose 11 corrective actions were implemented before flight 8. Without much success, since it failed again. Flight 9 is not expected to require a modification of the flight license, but the approval of the FAA is indispensable to schedule the launch. Spacex needs to accelerate the step to meet Elon Musk’s goal of an unmanned mission to Mars (with Robots Tesla Optimus) By the end of next year. The earth-marte transfer windows occur every two years, and Musk does not want to waste time. But Starship is already pushing the limits of technology and the last thing he needs is a third explosion about the Caribbean.

Estrella Galicia has decided that the star ingredient of his new beer is Valencia. And that is a risky bet

by

Yesterday, by surprise and before The suspicion of not a few, Estrella Galicia presented The one that would probably have been the most extravagant (and risky) product of its extensive catalog, which by the way are already including beers With perclabes either peppers: A BRIK of Special broth For Valencian Paella. It sounded crazy. And it was. There is no such broth. Nor will exist. What the Galician company is planned to launch is a “special Valencian edition” of its beer, something that announces almost on the eve of the Valencia failures. Beyond what the Galician company does the movement says a lot about where the beer sector walks. Paella Estrella Galicia broth? Sounds weird. And it is logical because it is. Yesterday Galicia surprised his own and strangers announcing a “broth for Valencian paella” (sic) Through its official profiles of Instagram, X and LinkedInin which I include even photos of the product, in whose container it could be read in great ‘Estrella Galicia’. The announcement was replicated in networks and there was a good handful of media that echoed the launch, clarifying In some cases that they had tried unsuccessfully to confirm the news with the company itself. They did not get it. And there was a reason. Click on the image to go to Tweet. NO BREATMENT, SPECIAL EDITION. It sounded like a marketing campaign. And there have been no surprises. It was. Estrella Galicia has confirmed it today through the same channels, with A video Shared in networks in which the cake uncovered: “Yesterday we launched our broth for Paella Valenciana and you put us to broth. Quiet, it was a joke.” The stitch goes with thread and in the same piece they take the opportunity to announce the product that they intend to launch: a beer ‘special edition Valencia’. Wrapping in tradition. What did the broth for Paellas come? Why yesterday’s message? Was it only a hook to gain visibility? Yes. And no. The campaign has served Estrella Galicia for something else: in addition to effectively multiplying the repercussion of the launch (that of the new beer, not the broth Fake) has allowed him to emphasize the leitmotiv of its commercial strategy, the basic idea of ​​its product: tradition. The Galician firm wants to reinforce in the Valencian Community. And curiously he wants to do so associating himself with the image of local culture. “This broth (that of Paella Estrella Galicia) has never existed. We would never do anything like that because, as you, we understand the value of our recipes. And here is our only secret ingredient is to respect the ingredients,” ensures the brewer in the video with which he announced his new Valencia 2025 edition. Click on the image to go to Tweet. Valencian, why? In summary: Estrella Galicia associates its image to the defense of tradition in a market, the Valencian, in which the bottles of the Rivera Children’s Corporation have already been worked on an important hole. In 2023 The provinces It echoed A study which revealed that, although in the territories close to the region, consumers opt for Mahou, star of Levante, Amber or Estrella Dam, the favorite beer of the Valencians was the one made by a company from the other end of the country. The question that leaves its launch is … What is special and Valenciana the special Valencian edition? The company does not clarify it. Is limited to ensuring That the drink will be “a tribute” to the passion of the community through the paella, but without going into details or deepening how it will elaborate or get it to differ from the rest of its catalog, beyond the labeling. Barrels … and maps. The star campaign also talks about something else: to what extent the brewer is a market played and distributed in Spain. A few months ago Datacentric elaborated A map of favorite beer brands by autonomous communities that demonstrate the clear (and pronounced) differences at the territorial level. In the Peninsular Center, Mahou reigns, Cruzcampo does it in Andalusia, in Aragon it is amber, in Catalonia Estrella Dam, in Murcia stands out Estrella de Levante and in much of the rest of the country Galicia makes it star. Beyond the preferences for reasons of historical and cultural roots, the weight of the Galician company at the state level does not surprise. If Star Galicia has highlighted for something over the last years it is his aggressive marketing strategy. His bottles have ended up to Cristina Pedroche and Chicote during New Year’s Campanadas. Even of the influencer Chiara Ferragniwho a few days ago posed with a bottle For the 28.7 million followers on Instagram. Click on the image to go to Tweet. The importance of figures. Campaigns such as Valencia also tell us about something else: an industry, the brewer, in full expansion and has been looking for new margins towards which its market widen. Although alcohol consumption is experiencing deep changes In Spain and distancing Of young people and frequent drinking intake, the beer sector has excelled in recent years due to the efficacy of its strategy. How has consumption evolved? The Statista tables They reflect that the total volume of beer consumed in Spain grew in a practically sustained way (with the impasse of the pandemic) between 2012 and 2023, following a opposite trend to that of the per capita intake. Statista sample Also that in 2023 in Spain each person drank on average about 56 liters of beer. There are two less than the previous year, but still far exceeding the average marks of (at least) the last decade and a half. Employers’ data Cervecera are also interesting: in 2023 it found an increase in consumption of 2.84%, although that growth was sustained by foreign tourism. Without it, he estimates that he would have fallen 3.53%. That percentage basically explains by the closing of bars after the pandemic and changes in the habits of the Spaniards, which at least in … Read more
